The novel is set in the Writers' Union of Ukraine in 1947, during the notorious rout of Ukrainian literature remembered above all for the vilification of Yurii Yanovskyi and Maksym Rylskyi. Ukrainian writers, colleagues in the craft and neighbours in the same building, are turned against each other by means of their own ambitions. Each of them comes out of this hard ethical trial differently: some with their heads held high and a smile on their lips, others in disgrace and with a lifetime of remorse.
